This is only temporary
Et cetera; my worst enemy
Can't shake this feeling
That this is only temporary
I can't feel my fingers
I can't feel...
¡No niños en la canasta!
Yeah, I did the right thing,
But not the right way!
I'd tell you everything, it wouldn't change
No, it wouldn't change
I can't feel my fingers
I can't feel...
¡No niños en la canasta!

A Positive / A Negative
02:58
|

A positive picture of you,
Is a negative picture of youth
It encapsulates an all new view
Even at such a young age,
The lights won’t dim as you head for that stage
It’s just an ugly version of truth
Shave the side of your head
A new fashion, you’re almost dead
You showed us the way
And now you’ve got nothing left to say
We’ve seen what you do
Just to make it through
Each week, but it doesn’t have to be this way
You’ve found success
In your brand new skin dress
Being yourself was never your thing
It’s sad, but
We told you…
(It’s sad, but we told you)
I never wanted to see
(It’s sad, but we told you)
Your fucked up version of truth
I don’t want to see what happens
To you…

Separation
02:16

To live under forceful anguish
Is a slow, slow death
To live under forceful anguish
Is a slow, slow death
Marching children to their cages
The separation gets intense
Void of sympathy
The separation gets intense
Convinced you're not a pawn yourself
You live comfortably
Though we all rot the same
Marching children to their cages
The separation gets intense
Void of sympathy
The separation gets intense
And you're no fucking hero

The Cause Of Pain
04:47
|

My bitter indignation
Task after task
Source of my animosity
Source of this acrimony
Tell me about it
Tell me about it
There’s nobody home but air
Your mistake, left cash for theft
Broken glasses in my dreams
Tears and pain you’ve caused me
Smash my head into the wall
I don’t wish you pain
I just need you to open your eyes
And see you’ve stolen from me
All I had left to gain
It’s just my rancor
From the long-term towering
Glib and snide
Glib and snide
Give it a while
You’ll see that material isn’t worth your time
I’m not the only one
You stole my dignity
You’ve got the spirit of the banshee
You’re the woman of the fairy mound
Your wail, that shriek; it reaps my worth
You reap what you sew
Behind the back of your man, another suitor will stand
He knows you totally can, you’re capable, but hardly a human

The Words
04:59
|

The words
That spew out your throat
Tend to hurt the ones around you
So cower and hide
You know it wasn't right
(What you said
Did you mean it?
What you said)
So sniff it up
Choke it down and suffocate
I live a lifetime per every dream
What happened to the night we spent watching lightning?
It just goes to show that you never know
What's happening behind the scene
Sometimes you don't need words at all...
The words you don't even bother to say
Speak volumes that what you really said couldn't reach
The words you never bothered to say
Are reflected by this porch light air
I swallow these words until I spit them up
Or until I take another hit, pour myself back up
And all I do is rant and rave
When reality becomes a fucking guessing game
But you're never around (But you're never around)
And you never want to be (And you never want to be)
But the way your green eyes set me on fire (But you're never around)
It makes me want to sit here and wait (And you never want to be)

Bother
05:23
|

My heart sinks at these words you said
The worrying sets in and I can't stop thinking
My heart sunk at just what you said
Potentially replaced, potentially replaced
Bothering
Why am I bothering?
Deafening static
It's all I can hear
You're in another room while I'm stuck here
What I was feeling is now replaced with fear
Bothering
With this anxiety
It’s all in my mind
It’s all in my mind

Oppressive mind
Neglect all you know
Commit to memory
Order obligatory
Stuck in my head
Third or so place
Always
Stuck in my head
Third or so place
Negative change
Reflective anguish
Oppressive mind
Neglect all you know
Commit to memory
Order obligatory
Stuck in my head
Third or so place (from a junkie's diet)
Always
Stuck in my head
Third or so place
Negative change
Reflective anguish
I'll never forget what you did to yourself
A rotting husk
You die happy and healthy

92 miles per hour
Influenced
92 miles…
“Forever, I will stay humble”
I wish you stayed
Every single day
Nothing feels the same
Anymore
Not since the morning
That I heard the news
Has anything really been the same
Without you two
Please come back
Please come back
Please come back
Please come back
If I had the chance,
I would go back
And answer you
One last time,
We’d share these recollections
One last time…
One last time…
One last time…
